Welcome Stewart Downing

[davewigan]

As the transfer agreed , think he deserves his own thread.

 

Can't wait to see the 1st proper match and how he fits in with Carroll and Suarez.

[Tones]

Ah come on, at least spell his name right Dave!

Do people ever have problems typing on non-Apple products? I never seem to read: "Curse my Motorola!"

[Ethan]

Cannot wait to see his medical photos!!

I hope Downing's LFC career goes much better than this thread.

Have you tried using this site on a Motorola.

[johngibo YPC]

I think he's going to do really well

Me too. He'll be very productive.

With STEWART, Gerrard, Adam, Suarez there is going to be a lot of potential assists/key passes in the in the team

Shaka Hislop says he's not a big enough name signing for the fans and stuff

That's because nobody actually has a Motorola!

quality is pushing it a bit

[Stevie H]

quality is pushing it a bit

why is it? among the best attacking players in the division last season, one of the best crossers too. he's consistent, will give us natural width and balance and won't need to adjust or acclimatise. also seems to not be a d*ckhead. think he's a smart signing for where we're at.

[John am Rhein]

great signing because it should keep the nonces out

[Dan]

I think he'll do really well too. Another massive plus is his injury record; pretty non existent apart from that broken foot I think. Probably had a lot to do with sanctioning a big spend on someone just about to turn 27. We should get a good few years out of him.

 

Edit: he did his knee 6 years ago as well

Love it when we sign someone completely out of the blue like this! Where were all the journos with this story, eh?

[Red Kent]

If he was called Stewardo Downinho some on here would still be playing with themselves.

Welcome, Stu. Great signing imo.

 

This is fom the beeb sports page:

 

"DID YOU KNOW?

 

Downing completed more crosses in open play - 135 - than any other player in the Premier League last season. No other player has beaten that amount for any of the last three campaigns."

 

 

 

 

 

Woohoo!
